SHOW TRANSCRIPT

McDonald's coffee isn't for everyone.

Which could be why the fast-food company is testing Monster energy drinks at some of its locations.

McDonald's is currently selling the energy drinks in 20 of its 14,000 restaurants in the U.S. McDonald's wouldn't confirm if there are plans for expansion of the sales, but a spokesperson told Bloomberg this is another example of the fast-food chain getting feedback from customers.

Bloomberg quotes an Evercore analyst who predicted the potential agreement could boost Monster earnings by as much as $2 a share.
